Xiao Liulang withdrew his foot on the rope bridge.
"Would you like to go? If you don't, get out of the way!" A big man behind him shoved Xiao Liulang aside arrogantly.
"Hey! How do you push people? Liulang! Liulang, come up quickly—" Feng Lin was already squeezed onto the bridge by the crowd. He thought that Xiao Liulang would follow him on the bridge. People robbed.
He reached out to grab Xiao Liulang.
But can't catch it at all.
"You come back too!" Xiao Liulang said to him.
Too bad it's too late.
There were too many people, and Feng Lin was quickly squeezed into the middle.
Lin Chengye was behind Xiao Liulang.
Xiao Liulang didn't get on the bridge, so he didn't either.
Gu Jiao still shouted not to come here, the bridge was about to break, but unfortunately only people who were about to get on the bridge heard it, and she didn't believe her when she heard it, she shook her head and went to the temple.
"oops!"
Feng Lin was squeezed across the bridge, one of them couldn't stand still, staggered two steps and fell.
He rubbed his aching knees and got up. Before he could see Gu Jiao not far away, he heard screams coming from behind him.
"what-"
"what-"
"what-"
Feng Lin looked back.
Um, bitch!
The bridge is broken!
The bridge is not interrupted from the middle, but from the end near the temple.
Everyone on the bridge fell into the freezing water.
Xiao Liulang clearly saw that the brawny man who had just pushed him away arrogantly fell into the air at the moment of going up the bridge.
He fell the hardest because he just stood tallest.
If it wasn't for Gu Jiao to stop her, then the one who fell into the water would be herself.
And Lin Chengye, who was behind him, couldn't avoid this disaster.
Those who fell into the water were like dumplings, struggling desperately in the icy river water, and those who did not get on the bridge were so frightened that their legs were weak.
Xiao Liulang looked at the slender figure on the other side from a distance.
This is the first time she has helped her avoid disaster
In the cold wind, she was dressed in a blue robe, her robe was agitated, her blue silk fluttered, and in the white world, she was like a little fairy in the world.
Gu Jiao came back here from the stone arch bridge.
Feng Lin followed behind her with a pale face.
Really, he was scared to death!
If one step later, he will fall!
And he is also very glad that Liu Lang and Lin Chengye didn't go to the bridge, otherwise how could they escape
Thinking of this, Feng Lin's legs seemed to have done a lot of bad things, and he couldn't even walk.
"Hurry up." Gu Jiao urged.
"Ah..." Feng Lin clasped his arms tightly, his voice trembling.
She did what she could, and the rest was not something she could interfere.
Not to mention what the world has to do with her, all she cares about is that one person.
The four of them met and came to Lin Chengye's carriage.
Seeing that the four of them came out safely, Director Zhou breathed a long sigh of relief: "Oh my God, I'm scared to death! I'm scared to death! I just heard people say that the rope bridge is broken, and I was thinking about six Are you and you on the bridge too... I... I... "
Lin Chengye patted Steward Zhou on the back soothingly.
It was also at this time that Lin Chengye realized that it was not easy for Zhou to manage things.
Maybe the people who survived the catastrophe are particularly vulnerable. In his heart, he always took Zhou Guanshi as the next person, but at this moment, he inexplicably saw a bit of the shadow of his old father in Zhou Guanshi.
Lin Chengye's nose is sour.
"Get in the car." Manager Zhou said with a choked smile.
Several people got into the carriage.
Although Xiao Liulang and Lin Chengye were saved, the few people in the carriage seemed to be unable to recover.
Feng Lin and Lin Chengye didn't hear Gu Jiao's words, only when Xiao Liulang was pushed away could he not be able to get on the rope bridge.
Because the two of them were too shocked by the accident, they forgot to ask Gu Jiao why they were here, and they arrived at the temple one step earlier.
The carriage quickly arrived at Lin Chengye's house. Manager Zhou lifted the curtain and said to Lin Chengye and Feng Lin with a smile: "Sixth son, Feng son, you get off first, and I will take Xiao Jieyuan and Mrs. Xiao back."
"Oh." Lin Chengye responded and got off the carriage with Feng Lin.
Both of them need to be restrained.
The carriage continued towards Bishui Hutong.
Manager Zhou sat in the parking space with the driver.
Only Xiao Liulang and Gu Jiao were left in the carriage.
Xiao Liulang glanced at Gu Jiao, she always carried a basket with her small medicine box in it.
She didn't bring anything today.
It can be seen that he is in a hurry to go out.
He looked at her for a moment: "how do you know the rope bridge will break?"
Gu Jiao said without changing her face: "Oh, a patient came to the medical center a few days ago. He just came back from Puji Temple to offer incense. He said that the rope bridge there has been in disrepair for a long time, and I'm afraid it won't last long. Today, the first day of the new year, With so many people going to grab the first incense, the rope bridge must not be able to bear your weight."
In her previous life, she had undergone polygraph training, and she could control even small expressions.
Xiao Liulang gave her a deep look: "But there are two bridges there. How do you know that we will take a long detour and take the rope bridge? Did you know in advance that a noble person would come over this morning and seal the stone arch bridge?"
Gu Jiao spread her hands: "Of course I don't know. I haven't been to Puji Temple. I don't know there is a stone arch bridge at all, okay? The patient didn't mention the stone arch bridge. I thought it was only the rope bridge."
The logic is flawless, provided that there is a patient with whom she has complained about the disrepair of the rope bridge.
This Xiao Liulang has no way to verify.
But Xiao Liulang always felt that this matter had nothing to do with evidence or not.
He looked at Gu Jiao: "Are you..."
Is it what
Xiao Liulang didn't believe it when he asked this.
He thought that a small medicine box would be enough for him to think about, but who would have expected it to be much more than that.
Her secrets are no less than his.
Xiao Liulang finally swallowed all his doubts.
You got through it, happy!
Gu Jiao shook her head, showing the same proud expression as Xiao Jingkong.
Xiao Liulang: Is it really good to reveal the contents so quickly? I don't want to be ashamed
"Xiao Jieyuan, Mrs. Xiao, here we are." Outside the curtain, Manager Zhou said.
The two got off the carriage, Xiao Liulang thanked him, and suddenly there was a squeak in the yard, and the two looked startled!
The last time Xiaojingkong made trouble with his aunt was still vivid in his mind.
Today, Gu Jiao was in a hurry and forgot to wake the little guy and told him that she was out.
If he wakes up and finds that he hadn't slept in Gu Jiao's bed again last night, then he'll feel like he's slept in vain again!
However, when the two entered the backyard with trepidation, they saw Xiao Qingkong happily playing in the snow with a puppy, seven chicks and a young eagle at home.
Gu Jiao: ... huh? Am I not important
Xiao Jingkong saw Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang, and he ran over: "Jiaojiao Jiaojiao!"
Excited little voice.
"Bad brother-in-law."
A low voice.
Gu Jiao opened her mouth: "Well, just now I..."
Xiao Jingkong cutely said: "I know I know! Jiaojiao is going to incense! Jiaojiao wants the Buddha to bless me to grow taller!"
Gu Jiao: What's the situation
There are stars in Xiao Jingkong's eyes: "Master, the old man has been here~"
The topic moved a little too fast.
Gu Jiao blinked, and saw Xiao Jingkong took out a piece of paper from a small box in the snow and handed it to Gu Jiao: "Look at Jiaojiao!"
This is a... um... what
Gu Jiao couldn't understand the words above.
Xiao Liulang looked at it and was a little surprised: "Liang Guo's house deed."
Gu Jiao: Is this a real estate speculator going abroad
Gu Jiao gave Xiao Liulang a look that could only be understood and indescribable. Could it be a fake house deed that you and grandpa deliberately made to comfort the little guy
Xiao Liulang pointed to a seal: "The real house deed has the official seal of the yamen."
Gu Jiao: "..."
Gu Jiao learned from Xiaojingkong that the master came in the middle of the night, left the gift and left.
Gu Jiao asked, "Then have you seen him?"
Xiao Jingkong thought for a while: "I see it! I see it!"
Children are always extraordinarily firm in their beliefs. As long as they want to see, they will see if they don't see it!
Gu Jiao said again, "Did you open the door for him?"
Xiao Jingkong: "Yes! Yes!"
Children can talk really freely sometimes!
The main reason is that Xiaojingkong believes that he opened the door for Master, and he also spent a pleasant night with Master!
Xiao Jingkong shook his head and went to play.
There was also a letter in the box, in Gu Jiao's horrific handwriting. The letter said that she was going to grab the first incense and let the Buddha bless the sky and grow tall. She was afraid that it would not be safe for him to sleep alone, so she first carried him to her aunt's bed.
Gu Jiao looked at Xiao Liulang: "This is not true, is it?"
Xiao Liulang spread his hands: "It's not me."
He really can't write such words.
The old sacrificial wine next door finally breathed a sigh of relief from the huge collapse. He imitated the name of the famous painter, but imitating the words of the little benefactor almost killed him—
…
The breaking of the rope bridge caused a lot of trouble, and the news could not be suppressed at all, and it spread to the palace at night.
The person who closed the road was also picked up, and it was the Crown Princess.
The princess released the news that she was going to Puji Temple to offer incense, so the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard closed roads, bridges and even streets for her.
If this matter was not a big deal in the past, after all, it is impossible for the royal family to travel without pomp.
As long as nothing happens, everything is fine.
But the question is whether something has happened, or is it a matter of life!
On the other side of the crown princess, the queen went to ask questions, while His Majesty called the crown prince to the imperial study and scolded him: "Look at what you have done! On the first day of the new year, the beginning of the national fortune, you two gave me such a big stab. Basket! Do you think my throne is too stable? Do you want to find something wrong with me?"
The prince is also aggrieved, that royal family is not ostentatious? What's more, that's the Crown Princess, the future mother of Zhao Kingdom, not to mention that she just blocked a road and a bridge, even if she sealed the temple today, it is not a mistake to not allow others to enter the incense.
It's not that the prince favors the princess, it's the royal family that has always been like this.
This is both a royal pomp and a royal rule.
Unless the Crown Princess goes privately.
But then her safety would not be guaranteed.
However, His Majesty was in a fit of rage now, and the Crown Prince did not dare to refute a word.
His Majesty continued to scold: "You can't learn from the third child? How does someone else's daughter-in-law do things? How does your daughter-in-law do things?"
Because the third prince and concubine obeyed Gu Jiao's advice, she selected a large number of water-savvy people from her own guards and imperial guards to bring them to the back door of the temple. The moment the rope bridge broke, she immediately directed them to go down the river to save people.
The river is not fast, and everyone is holding on to the wooden boards of the rope bridge. As long as they are rescued in time, they will not freeze to death in the river.
The vast majority of those who fell into the water were rescued, and casualties were minimized.
Most of them are candidates for next year's Spring Festival.
One can imagine how much talent loss it would bring to the entire court if they were not rescued!
His Majesty used to have a very good impression of the Crown Princess. After all, she was a person who had a marriage contract with the young Jijiu. The two grew up as childhood sweethearts. With such a good child, where could she be
At the beginning, this marriage was a little inappropriate.
The prince is Xiao Heng's cousin.
How could he ask to marry his cousin's widow
But Wen Linlang is really excellent, Xiao Heng has passed away for so long, and the crown prince really likes it. After many considerations, His Majesty agreed to this marriage.
Wen Linlang did not disappoint the royal family, even though her background was not considered outstanding among princes and concubines, but her talent, mind, vision, and ability far surpassed the rest of His Majesty's daughter-in-law.
This kind of thing happened today, which Your Majesty did not expect.
His Majesty continued to scold: "Do you know how much resentment the common people have these days? If the third daughter-in-law hadn't acted in time today and saved everyone, your father, the emperor, and I will have an edict tomorrow!"
Only when the king of a country has made a huge mistake will he write an edict to accuse the world, which is tantamount to slapping the royal family in the face.
No emperor is willing to commit guilt.
This will be recorded in the annals of history and will be left unseen for thousands of years!
The prince was scolded bloody.
It took a full hour before returning to the East Palace with his sore knees.
The third prince and concubine made a great contribution, and His Majesty rewarded her with a thousand taels of gold, and issued an imperial decree, canonizing the third prince as King Rui, and the third prince concubine as Princess Rui.
This is the first prince to be crowned a king after the crown prince.
It stands to reason that if you want to seal it, you should start with the first prince.
But none of the civil and military officials have spoken out against it, there is no way, so many lives, so many future pillars of the court!
Even the censor with the most poisonous mouth was silent.
The third prince... Now it's time to call him Prince Rui.
King Rui entered the palace with his daughter-in-law and kowtowed to His Majesty.
His Majesty was very happy. I used to think that this son was not very promising, but his daughter-in-law is so capable, at least he and Concubine Yu are not bad at picking people.
His Majesty King Liu Rui played two games of chess.
Concubine Rui went to the Empress to invite An, went to Concubine Zhuang Gui and Concubine Yu to invite An, and then went to the Imperial Garden for a walk.
Turning around, he came to the gate of the East Palace.
"You." She pointed to the female officer Xu, "Go in and report it, saying that this princess is asking to see the crown princess."
"...Yes." Xu female officer bit her head and went.
After a while, female officer Xu came out, followed by a smiling mama.
Mammy said: "It turns out that Princess Rui is here, and she is welcome from afar, but it is inconvenient for the Crown Princess to see guests now."
Princess Rui smiled and said, "Isn't she just grounded by the father? I didn't want her to come out, I'll go in and see her!"
After all, she didn't care if she was invited or not, she lifted her skirt and crossed the threshold, and went to the East Courtyard of the Crown Princess.
The princess was kneeling on the mat in the warm pavilion and copying Buddhist scriptures.
"Yo, what is sister-in-law doing?" Princess Rui raised her eyebrows and walked in.
"Princess Rui!"
"Go back."
A palace maid tried to stop Princess Rui, but was stopped by the crown princess.
The palace maid Nuonuo withdrew.
Princess Rui sat down on the mat opposite her.
But female officer Xu did not dare to follow up, and waited outside the door with the aunt and maid of the East Palace.
The Crown Princess put down the pen gently and looked at Princess Rui with a calm expression: "I don't know why Princess Rui came to me today, why?"
Princess Rui said with a smile: "I heard that you were grounded. I was afraid that you were bored. I just came to help you relieve your boredom. Don't blame me for being late. I only heard that you were grounded this morning."
The princess didn't answer, picked up the pen and continued to copy the Buddhist scriptures.
Princess Rui wouldn't feel bored just because she ignored her. She has been living under Wen Linlang's shadow for 20 years, and finally, once, she doesn't need to be suppressed by Wen Linlang.
Princess Rui smiled and said, "If you feel uncomfortable, just say it. You don't have to pretend to be indifferent."
"I'm not uncomfortable," the princess said calmly.
Princess Rui smiled: "I heard that it wasn't you who wanted to travel, it was your family who borrowed your name. Why didn't you explain it to the royal father?"
This is where Princess Rui is stronger than the Crown Princess. Princess Rui's family never drags her down, because her family has the backing of Luo Guogong's mansion, which is already strong enough.
Wen Linlang was different. The Wen family was in decline, her father was seriously ill at home, and her brother was only a small master of the Dali Temple.
Of course, Princess Rui understood that the Crown Princess couldn't explain it. Some things got worse and worse, and she would give Your Majesty the illusion that she would just shirk responsibility if something happened to her.
The Crown Princess said casually: "I heard that Princess Rui was already calling in people before the rope bridge broke. I have no other intentions, I just want to ask Princess Rui how she was unpredictable."
Princess Rui's almond eyes stared: "What do you mean? Do you suspect that I broke the bridge on purpose? I'm not so blackhearted!"
Crown Princess: "Then how did you know?"
"I..." The third prince concubine choked.
In fact, she didn't understand how Miss Gu knew. She had already left after she rescued her. She was also worried about whether Miss Gu had something to do with the broken rope bridge, so she was cautious and never mentioned her to anyone.
The hospital hasn't opened yet, and she doesn't know where Miss Gu lives.
The princess twitched the corners of her lips and continued to bury her head in copying the Buddhist scriptures.
Princess Rui realized that she was being led away by the nose, and she was so embarrassed that she quickly turned back to the gods: "Do you think that the emperor did not investigate? The bridge looked in disrepair, and you drove all the pilgrims over there. Strange!"
His Majesty has indeed investigated, and there is indeed no trace of human intervention.
However, the Princess Rui's face still did not reveal the frustration that Princess Rui wanted.
Princess Rui narrowed her eyes.
It was so easy to press her once, how could you not see that desolate look
Princess Rui rested her elbows on several cases, and slowly approached the other party: "Actually, I just heard about something not long ago, and I don't know if it's true, so I came to ask the Queen's Sister-in-law."
The princess ignored her.
Concubine Rui said: "I heard that the night when the little Marquis had an accident... he was waiting for you at the Guozijian. If this is the case, then you killed him."
The crown princess's brush squeaked, and a long ink mark was drawn on the paper—
One more update, see you at eight.
